DEANA CHANDLER Deana Chandler, generous friend, and beloved mother, daughter, sister, partner, niece, granddaughter, and aunt, left us Monday morning, July 9th. Her short life was lived with a grace, energy, charisma, and elegance that belied the deep sadness that filled her heart. Those that knew her, those that she touched, that she influenced, inspired, comforted, and supported in this world will miss her greatly. She was just over 40 years old. Deana is survived by her three beautiful, amazing children and a world of adoring friends and family. Services will be held Friday, July 13th at 2:30pm at Alden-Waggoner Funeral Chapel in Boise. In lieu of flowers, please make donations in Deana's name to the Suicide Prevention Action Network of Idaho: more information at spanidaho.org
